| What a treat to hear about Tharhîwon's arrival in Valinor - and of his relationship with Frodo! Your tale makes a perfect case for how the little one is 'adopted' by Frodo and not by Elrond & Celebrian - though they do help too. Love Gandalf's appearance as well. Great story. |

| Thank you - and yes - there was a bit of a gap there that needed filling... I'm glad this explains it well! |

| What a lovely little story. As a mother I could have cried for him, so in need of some love and care just for him. I loved the small touches, the blanket and the horse, and poor Galadriel thinking it possible that Celeborn might not love her enough to sail, and Frodo finding in him a little companion - really touching and sweet. I loved the link back to Tindome, Rumil and Haldirin as well. I hadn't thought of how elves might find it hard to parent a child that wasn't their own. This is a really lovely addition to your canon! |

** This is a really lovely addition to your canon!** Thank you so much. I'm so glad that you enjoyed it.
That journey must have been a bit scary, I thought, and as you know the rest of the stories you will doubtless recognise the horse Orophin carved for him, and who would have knitted him a blanket. I do think that, without him Frodo would have been very lonely; a hobbit without family seems to me to be a very sad hobbit who might not survive.
To be honest, that difficulty with a child not your own sort of vaguely occurred to me in Winter Garden, but only fully struck me as i thought through this one. |
